The Crucial Role of Community Submissions for the Cabinteely Greenway
Formal submissions from local residents, businesses, sports clubs, and community organisations are absolutely vital for the success of the proposed Cabinteely Greenway. This 2.3km scheme, connecting Cornelscourt to Cherrywood, is not just infrastructure; it's a transformative community asset. Collective support provides decision-makers with irrefutable proof of its necessity, demonstrating how it will:
Enhance Community Life & Safety (Residents/Schools): Create a safe, segregated route for school journeys and local trips, particularly to Cabinteely Park and the amenities along the route, reducing reliance on cars and promoting healthier lifestyles for people of all ages and abilities.
Boost Local Economy (Businesses): Generate increased footfall and cycle traffic through Cornelscourt Village and adjacent areas, directly supporting local shops, cafes, and services by making the area more accessible and desirable.
Improve Access to Sport & Leisure (Clubs/Groups): Offer new, safe active travel links to Cabinteely Park’s facilities and other local sports grounds, making it easier and safer for members to travel to training and events, thereby fostering greater participation.
These submissions are the community’s voice, showcasing the Cabinteely Greenway as a shared, sustainable vision that will connect neighbourhoods, support climate action, and deliver significant local well-being benefits for decades to come.
